Welcome to the FABS homepage!

What is FABS?

FABS is a program for making banners, much the way old programs like Printshop did, except it uses ASCII characters for the fonts. If you've ever used the program Figlet (which helped inspire this one), this is sort of like Figlet turned sideways. You can make your own fonts quite easily with just a text editor, and I've done up a few files and utilities that might help you. More are on the way as time permits.

Contacting Softouch Software

If you have any questions/bug reports, please let us know. We'd also be interested in any fonts you create so they can be added to the download page. The best way to contact Softouch Software is to send mail to Softouch@cheerful.com, and we'll try and get back to you as soon as possible.

Downloads

The following downloads are currently available

FABS download - click here download the program
Fonts download - this is a zip file of all the fonts currently available
